This AI Learning Community Earned $225K in 6 Months

Check out Promptmaster, a course and community that helps you get more out of ChatGPT 🤖

In a recent post, co-founder David Szabo-Stuban writes…

We almost made a quarter million dollars which is really good for a first year for a bootstrapped business.

🚀 The origin story…

I had some background in [Machine Learning] prior to ChatGPT… Since Nov 2022 I was spending all my free time hacking stuff together using GPT either via ChatGPT or the API.

Quickly I found myself teaching colleagues, friends etc and my friend Dave (same name, yes) who had a background as a teacher suggested we should focus on teaching.

They hired an ML professor and built a “prompt engineering” course together, which made them a quick $30,000 💰

Then, in September 2023…

We were lucky because one of our IG reels was picked up by a ChatGPT plugin developer who had 250k users and we did a live webinar together. That’s when we actually launched our first offer.

We had over 2k people signing up for our webinar, 700 attended, we made $40k in the first month.

So they’ve done really well with strategic partnerships, teaming up with experts to supercharge their efforts.

Could you do something like this in your niche or industry? 🤔

Another key to their success…

When I’m looking at the prompting market I see 90% snake oil salesmen 10% real competition. We figured we’d take the hard road: outteach EVERYONE…

Our focus is on service, every day provide better service to our clients than yesterday. The product doesn’t matter. The funnel doesn’t matter. When I have a client in front of me with a problem, I help them solve it, period. Rinse and repeat.

In other words, they focused on delivering a ton of value to their customers.

One way they did this was via customer interviews, which had them connecting with their audience and collecting useful feedback so they could improve 📈

Last words from David…

If you’re just starting out, be patient. It took me almost a decade to finally get lucky. You’ll get there.

Love that 😍

If you stick around long enough, luck is sure to come your way.
